In such event, if Borrower has not in fact made such payment, then each of the Lenders, severally agrees to repay to Administrative Agent forthwith on demand the amount so distributed to such Lender with interest thereon, for each day from and including the date such amount is distributed to it to but excluding the date of payment to Administrative Agent, at the greater of the Federal Funds Effective Rate and a rate reasonably determined by Administrative Agent in accordance with banking industry rules on interbank compensation.
(3)If any Lender shall fail to make any payment required to be made by it pursuant to Section 14.13, then Administrative Agent may, in its discretion (notwithstanding any contrary provision hereof), apply any amounts thereafter received by Administrative Agent for the account of such Lender to satisfy such Lender’s obligations under such Sections until all such unsatisfied obligations are fully paid.

(1)Borrower shall obtain and maintain, or cause to be maintained, Policies for Borrower and the Project providing at least the following coverages:
(a)Commercial General Liability Insurance with limits of not less than $1,000,000 per occurrence for bodily injury including death, personal injury and property damage and $2,000,000 in the aggregate for the policy period (which insurance shall provide that defense costs are in addition to policy limits), (with deductibles reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent), and extended to cover: (a) Contractual Liability as provided in the standard Insurance Service Office (ISO) policy form or its equivalent with no exclusions or limitations to contractual liability, (b) Products & Completed Operations coverage, such coverage to apply for two years following completion of construction, (c) waiver of subrogation against all parties named additional insured, (d) severability of interest provision, and (e) Personal Injury & Advertisers Liability;
(b)Automobile Liability including coverage on owned, hired, and non-owned automobiles and other vehicles, if used in connection with the performance of the work, with Bodily Injury and Property Damage limits of not less than $1,000,000 per accident combined single limit, with a waiver of subrogation against all parties named as additional insured;
(c)Umbrella/Excess Liability in excess of Commercial General Liability, Automobile Liability and Employers’ Liability coverages which is at least as broad as these underlying policies with a limit of liability of $50,000,000; provided, however, that if aggregate limits are shared with other locations, the amount of such insurance to be provided shall be not less than $100,000,000, with not less than $25,000,000 of such amount reasonably allocable to the Project;
(d)All-Risk Property (Special Cause of Loss) Insurance, including, without limitation, coverage for loss or damage to the Project by fire and other perils including windstorm, earthquake/earth movement and malicious mischief, building ordinance extension endorsement (including cost of demolition, increased costs of construction and the value of the undamaged portion of the building and soft costs coverage), and boiler and machinery coverage (if separate policy, that policy must include loss of rents or business interruption coverage), as specified by Administrative Agent. The policy shall be in an amount not less than the full insurable value on a replacement cost basis of the insured Improvements and personal property related thereto (without deduction for depreciation). During any construction
29
4929-2661-3627 v.4

period, such policy shall be written in the so-called “Builder’s Risk Completed Value Non-Reporting Form” with no coinsurance requirement and shall contain a provision granting the insured permission to occupy prior to completion. Such policy shall not contain an exclusion for terrorist losses. However, if such an exclusion exists in the All-Risk policy, a separate Terrorism policy covering Certified Acts of Terrorism must be evidenced to Administrative Agent in an amount equal to the full replacement cost of the Improvements, or the outstanding principal amount of the Loans, whichever is less. This policy must also list Administrative Agent as mortgagee and loss payee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower shall not be required to provide insurance covering Certified Acts of Terrorism in the limits provided above if the premium for such insurance shall exceed the Terrorism Premium Limit, but shall be required to provide such insurance to the extent that the same is available at the Terrorism Premium Limit. As used herein, the term “Terrorism Premium Limit” shall mean a premium at a rate of $0.10 per $100 applied to the lesser of (i) the outstanding principal balance of the Loans and (ii) the full replacement cost of the Improvements and personal property related thereto and the required business income value. Borrower may use a captive insurance company (directly or indirectly owned by ALX or VRLP) to insure losses, damages, costs, expenses, claims and liabilities related to acts of terrorism, but only if, and for so long as, (a) such captive insurance company is licensed as a captive insurance company, (b) coverage for any losses resulting from certified acts of terrorism may be subsidized by the United States Government established by the Terrorism Risk Insurance Program Reauthorization Act (“TRIPRA”) of 2015 and as amended, (c) such captive insurance company shall purchase reinsurance for the remaining balance of covered terrorism losses with insurers meeting the rating requirements provided in Section 3.1(2), (d) such captive insurance company shall be responsible for any deductible below the TRIPRA threshold, (e) Administrative Agent has been provided with the financial statements of such captive insurance company, which financial statements must demonstrate that such captive insurance company shall have the financial wherewithal to meet its obligations under such insurance policy, as determined by the licensing authority of the state where it is domiciled, and (f) such captive insurance company must meet any applicable requirements under TRIPRA;
(e)Workers’ Compensation and Employer’s Liability Insurance in accordance with the applicable laws of the state in which the work is to be performed or of the state in which Borrower is obligated to pay compensation to employees engaged in the performance of the work. The policy limit under the Employer’s Liability Insurance section shall not be less than $1,000,000.00 for any one accident, disease each employee and disease policy limit;
(f)If the Project, or any part thereof, lies within a “special flood hazard area” as designated on maps prepared by the Department of Housing and Urban Development, a National Flood Insurance Association, standard flood insurance policy, plus insurance from a private insurance carrier if necessary and commercially available, for the duration of the Loans in the amount of the full insurable value of the Improvements, or the amount of the Loans, whichever is less;
(g)Rent loss or business interruption insurance against loss of income (including, but not limited to, rent, cost reimbursements and all other amounts payable by tenants under Leases or otherwise derived by Borrower from the operation
30
4929-2661-3627 v.4

of the Project) arising out of damage to or destruction of the Improvements by fire or other peril insured against under each policy. The amount of the policy shall be in the amount equal to one year’s projected rentals or gross revenue; and
(h)Such other types and amounts of insurance with respect to the Project and the operation thereof which are commonly maintained and commercially available in the case of other property and buildings similar to the Project in nature, use, location, height, ownership, and type of construction, as may from time to time be reasonably required by Administrative Agent upon not less than ten (10) Business Days’ advance notice to Borrower, which insurance may include, without limitation, errors and omissions insurance with respect to the contractors, architects and engineers.
(2)Each insurance policy required hereunder (each a “Policy” and collectively, the “Policies”) shall be issued by an insurance company approved by Administrative Agent, which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld. Administrative Agent acknowledges that an insurance company eligible to do business in the state where the Project is located having a rating of “BBB” or better by S&P or “A-/IX” or better by A.M. Best Co., in Best’s Rating Guide shall be acceptable to Administrative Agent, provided, however, that if any insurance required hereunder is provided by a syndicate, then only 60% of the members of the syndicate (or 75% if five (5) or fewer insurance companies comprise the syndicate) must satisfy the foregoing rating requirement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower shall be permitted to maintain the required insurance policies with insurers that do not meet the foregoing rating requirement (an “Otherwise Rated Insurer”), provided that Borrower obtains a so-called “cut-through” endorsement (i.e., an endorsement which permits recovery against the provider of such endorsement) reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent with respect to an Otherwise Rated Insurer from an insurance company which meets the ratings requirement set forth above.
(3)All Policies shall (i) name the Administrative Agent, as administrative agent, any and all subsidiaries and their successors and/or assigns, as their interests may appear as additional insureds on all liability insurance and as mortgagee and loss payee on All-Risk Property, flood insurance and rent loss or business interruption insurance, (ii) be endorsed to show that Borrower’s insurance shall be primary and all insurance carried by Administrative Agent or any Lender is strictly excess and secondary and shall not contribute with Borrower’s insurance, (iii) provide that Administrative Agent is to receive thirty (30) days (except ten (10) days for non-payment of premium) written notice prior to cancellation, (iv) be evidenced by a certificate of insurance to be provided to Administrative Agent along with a copy of the Policy for the All-Risk Property coverage within five (5) Business Days after receipt and approval by Borrower, (v) include either policy or binder numbers on the current edition of the appropriate ACORD form or its equivalent, and (vi) be in form and amounts as required herein or otherwise reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent. Not less than five (5) days prior to the expiration dates of the Policies theretofore furnished to Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 3.1(1), Borrower shall deliver certificates of insurance or binders for renewal Policies accompanied by evidence satisfactory to Administrative Agent of payment of the premiums due as required thereunder.
31
4929-2661-3627 v.4

(4)All Policies provided for in Section 3.1(1) shall contain clauses or endorsements to the effect that:
(i)with respect to property, flood, boiler and machinery, builder’s risk and business interruption Policies, no act or negligence of Borrower, or anyone acting for Borrower, or failure to comply with the provisions of any Policy which might otherwise result in a forfeiture of the insurance or any part thereof, shall in any way affect the validity or enforceability of the insurance insofar as Administrative Agent is concerned;
(ii)each Policy shall not be cancelled without at least 30 days’ (except 10 days’ for non-payment of premium) written notice to Administrative Agent; and
(iii)Administrative Agent shall not be liable for any insurance premiums thereon or subject to any assessments thereunder.
(5)Any insurance required to be maintained pursuant to this Section may be evidenced by blanket insurance policies covering the Project and other properties or assets of Borrower or its Affiliates, provided that any such policy shall in all other respects materially comply with the requirements of this Section.
(6)If at any time Administrative Agent is not in receipt of written evidence that all insurance required hereunder is in full force and effect, Administrative Agent shall have the right, following at least five (5) days written notice to Borrower (or upon written notice to Borrower, if any insurance required to maintained hereunder shall not be in full force and effect or shall be due to expire within one (1) Business Day), to take such action as Administrative Agent deems necessary to protect its and the Lenders’ interest in the Project, including, without limitation, the obtaining of such insurance coverage as Administrative Agent in its reasonable discretion deems appropriate (but not more than the insurance required to be maintained by Borrower pursuant to this Agreement), provided that Administrative Agent shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide in such forced placed insurance that the applicable insurance policies will be terminable and the premiums thereunder refundable for any period of time in which such policies are not in effect, and all actual expenses incurred by Administrative Agent in connection with such action or in obtaining such insurance and keeping it in effect shall be paid by Borrower to Administrative Agent within ten (10) Business Days after demand therefor, and until paid shall be secured by the Mortgage and shall bear interest at the Default Rate.
(7)In the event of a foreclosure of the Mortgage, or other transfer of title to the Project in extinguishment in whole or in part of the Loans, all right, title and interest of Borrower in and to the Policies then in force (other than any such Policies evidenced by blanket insurance policies covering the Project and other properties or assets of Borrower or its Affiliates) and all proceeds payable thereunder shall thereupon vest in the purchaser at such foreclosure or Administrative Agent for the benefit of the Lenders or other transferee in the event of such other transfer of title.

(xi)the Net Proceeds together with any cash or Qualified Letter of Credit deposited by Borrower with Administrative Agent pursuant to Section 3.2(2)(f) are sufficient in Administrative Agent’s reasonable discretion to cover the cost of the Restoration; and
(xii)the Management Agreement in effect as of the date of the occurrence of such Casualty or Condemnation, whichever the case may be, shall (1) remain in full force and effect during the Restoration and shall not otherwise terminate as a result of the Casualty or Condemnation or the Restoration or (2) if terminated, shall have been replaced with a replacement Management Agreement with a new Manager satisfying the requirements of Section 9.3, prior to the opening or reopening of the Project or any portion thereof for business with the public.
(b)The Net Proceeds shall be held by Administrative Agent (with any interest earned on such proceeds to be available to Borrower to the same extent as Net Proceeds are made available pursuant to the terms of this Section 3.2) and, until disbursed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3.2, shall constitute additional security for the Loans and other obligations under the Loan Documents. The Net Proceeds shall be disbursed by Administrative Agent to, or as directed by, Borrower from time to time during the course of the Restoration, upon receipt of evidence reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent that (A) all materials installed and work and labor performed (except to the extent that they are to be paid for out of the requested
34
4929-2661-3627 v.4

disbursement) in connection with the Restoration have been paid for in full (less Casualty Retainage), and (B) there exist no notices of pendency, stop orders, mechanic’s or materialman’s liens or notices of intention to file same, or any other Liens or encumbrances of any nature whatsoever on the Project which have not either been fully bonded to the reasonable satisfaction of Administrative Agent and discharged of record or in the alternative fully insured to the reasonable satisfaction of Administrative Agent by the Title Company.
(c)All plans and specifications required in connection with the Restoration, the cost of which is greater than the Threshold Amount, shall be subject to prior review and acceptance (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) in all material respects by Administrative Agent and by an independent consulting engineer selected by Administrative Agent (the “Casualty Consultant”). After the occurrence and during the continuance of any Event of Default, Administrative Agent shall have the use of the plans and specifications and all permits, licenses and approvals required or obtained in connection with the Restoration. The identity of the contractors, subcontractors and materialmen engaged in the Restoration, the cost of which is greater than the Threshold Amount, as well as the contracts under which they have been engaged, shall be subject to prior review and acceptance (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed) by Administrative Agent and the Casualty Consultant. All reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Administrative Agent in connection with making the Net Proceeds available for the Restoration, including, without limitation, reasonable counsel fees and disbursements and the Casualty Consultant’s fees, shall be paid by Borrower.
(d)In no event shall Administrative Agent be obligated to make disbursements of the Net Proceeds in excess of an amount equal to the costs actually incurred from time to time for work in place as part of the Restoration, as certified by the Casualty Consultant, minus the Casualty Retainage. The term “Casualty Retainage” shall mean an amount equal to ten percent (10%) of the costs actually incurred for work in place as part of the Restoration, as certified by the Casualty Consultant, until the Restoration has been completed. The Casualty Retainage shall in no event, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth above in this Section 3.2(2), be less than the amount actually held back by Borrower from contractors, subcontractors and materialmen engaged in the Restoration (but shall not be duplicative of such amounts actually held back by Borrower). The Casualty Retainage shall not be released until the Casualty Consultant certifies to Administrative Agent that the Restoration has been completed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3.2 and that all approvals necessary for the re-occupancy and use of the Project have been obtained from all appropriate Governmental Authorities, and Administrative Agent receives evidence reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent that the costs of the Restoration have been paid in full or will be paid in full out of the Casualty Retainage; provided, however, that Administrative Agent will release the portion of the Casualty Retainage being held with respect to any contractor, subcontractor or materialman engaged in the Restoration as of the date upon which the Casualty Consultant certifies to Administrative Agent that the contractor, subcontractor or materialman has satisfactorily completed all work and has supplied all materials in accordance with the provisions of the contractor’s,
35
4929-2661-3627 v.4

subcontractor’s or materialman’s contract, the contractor, subcontractor or materialman delivers the lien waivers and evidence of payment in full of all sums due to the contractor, subcontractor or materialman as may be reasonably requested by Administrative Agent. If required by Administrative Agent, the release of any such portion of the Casualty Retainage shall be approved by the surety company, if any, which has issued a payment or performance bond with respect to the contractor, subcontractor or materialman.
(e)Administrative Agent shall not be obligated to make disbursements of the Net Proceeds more frequently than once every calendar month.
(f)If at any time the Net Proceeds or the undisbursed balance thereof shall not, in the reasonable opinion of Administrative Agent, in consultation with the Casualty Consultant, if any, be sufficient to pay in full the balance of the costs which are reasonably estimated by the Casualty Consultant to be incurred in connection with the completion of the Restoration, Borrower shall deposit the deficiency (the “Net Proceeds Deficiency”), either in cash or a Qualified Letter of Credit or other security reasonably acceptable to Administrative Agent, with Administrative Agent before any further disbursement of the Net Proceeds shall be made. Any Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited with Administrative Agent shall be held by Administrative Agent (with any interest earned thereon to be available to Borrower to the same extent as the Net Proceeds Deficiency is made available pursuant to the terms of this Section 3.2) and shall be disbursed for costs actually incurred in connection with the Restoration on the same conditions applicable to the disbursement of the Net Proceeds, and until so disbursed pursuant to this Section 3.2 shall constitute additional security for the Loans and other obligations under the Loan Documents.
(g)The excess, if any, of the Net Proceeds and the remaining balance, if any, of the Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited with Administrative Agent after the Casualty Consultant certifies to Administrative Agent that the Restoration has been completed in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3.2 and the receipt by Administrative Agent of evidence reasonably satisfactory to Administrative Agent that all costs incurred in connection with the Restoration have been paid in full, shall be remitted by Administrative Agent to Borrower, provided no Event of Default shall have occurred and shall be continuing. Without limitation of the foregoing, any remaining Net Proceeds Deficiency deposited with Administrative Agent pursuant this Section 3.2 shall be promptly returned to Borrower after the Indebtedness has been paid in full.
(3)All Net Proceeds not required (i) to be made available for the Restoration or (ii) to be returned to Borrower as excess Net Proceeds pursuant to Section 3.2(2)(g) may be retained and applied by Administrative Agent toward the payment of the Loans (without any prepayment premium) whether or not then due and payable in the order and amounts provided for in Section 15.1. If Administrative Agent shall receive and retain Net Proceeds, the Lien of the Mortgage shall be reduced only by the amount thereof received and retained by Administrative Agent and actually applied by Administrative Agent in reduction of the Loans. All Net Proceeds applied to the Loan shall be applied in accordance with Section 15.1.
36
4929-2661-3627 v.4

(4)Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the provisions of this Section 3.2 are subject to and superseded by the provisions of the Condominium Documents governing applications of insurance proceeds to the extent such provisions conflict with this Section 3.2.
Section 3.3 Casualty and Condemnation.
(a)If the Project shall be damaged or destroyed, in whole or in part, by fire or other casualty (a “Casualty”), Borrower shall give prompt notice of such damage to Administrative Agent and shall promptly commence and diligently prosecute the completion of the Restoration of the Project. Borrower shall pay all costs of such Restoration whether or not such costs are covered by insurance (provided that, if Net Proceeds are required to be made available to Borrower for Restoration pursuant to the terms of Section 3.2, they are made available to Borrower for Restoration). Administrative Agent may, but shall not be obligated to, make proof of loss if not made diligently by Borrower.
(b)Borrower shall promptly give Administrative Agent notice of the actual or threatened (in writing) commencement of any proceeding for the Condemnation of all or any part of the Project and shall deliver to Administrative Agent copies of any and all papers served in connection with such proceedings. Administrative Agent may participate in any such proceedings if the amount of Condemnation Proceeds is reasonably expected to exceed the Threshold Amount, and Borrower shall, from time to time, deliver to Administrative Agent all instruments reasonably requested by it to permit such participation. Borrower shall, at its expense, diligently prosecute any such proceedings, and shall consult with Administrative Agent, its attorneys and experts, and cooperate with them in the carrying on or defense of any such proceedings. Notwithstanding any taking by any public or quasi public authority through Condemnation or otherwise (including, but not limited to, any transfer made in lieu of or in anticipation of the exercise of such taking), Borrower shall continue to pay the Loans at the time and in the manner provided for its payment in the Notes and in this Agreement and the Loans shall not be reduced until any Award shall have been actually received and applied by Administrative Agent, after the deduction of reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of collection, to the reduction or discharge of the Loans. Administrative Agent and the Lenders shall not be limited to the interest paid on the Award by the condemning authority but shall be entitled to receive out of the Award interest at the rate or rates provided herein or in the Notes. If the Project or any portion thereof is taken by a condemning authority, Borrower shall, promptly commence and diligently prosecute the Restoration of the Project and otherwise comply with the provisions of Section 3.2. If the Project is sold through a foreclosure or similar proceeding prior to the receipt by Administrative Agent of the Award, Administrative Agent shall have the right, whether or not a deficiency judgment on the Notes shall have been sought, recovered or denied, to receive the Award, or a portion thereof sufficient to pay the Loans.

REMEDIES

Upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in Section 10.8 or 10.9, the obligations of the Lenders to advance amounts hereunder shall immediately terminate, and all amounts due under the Loan Documents immediately shall become due and payable, all without written notice and without presentment, demand, protest, notice of protest or dishonor, notice of intent to accelerate the maturity thereof, notice of acceleration of the maturity thereof, or any other notice of default of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by Borrower; provided, however, if the Bankruptcy Party under Section 10.8 or 10.9 is other than Borrower, then upon the occurrence of any Event of Default described in Section 10.8 or 10.9, all amounts due under the Loan Documents shall become immediately due and payable at Administrative Agent’s election or by Administrative Agent at the direction of the Senior Lenders.
Section 11.2 Remedies - Other Events.
Except as set forth in Section 11.1, while any Event of Default exists, Administrative Agent may, and at the direction of the Senior Lenders shall, (1) by written notice to Borrower, declare the entire amount of the Loans to be immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest, notice of protest or dishonor, notice of intent to accelerate the maturity thereof, notice of acceleration of the maturity thereof, or other notice of default of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived by Borrower, (2) terminate the obligation, if any, of the Lenders to

If Administrative Agent shall elect to pay any sum due with reference to the Project pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence, Administrative Agent may do so in reliance on any bill, statement or assessment procured from the appropriate Governmental Authority or other issuer thereof without inquiring into the accuracy or validity thereof. Similarly, in making any payments to protect the security intended to be created by the Loan Documents during the continuance of an Event of Default, Administrative Agent shall not be bound to inquire into the validity of any apparent or threatened adverse title, Lien, encumbrance, claim or charge before making an advance for the purpose of preventing or removing the same. Additionally, if any Hazardous Materials affect or threaten to affect the Project, then, during the continuance of an Event of Default, Administrative Agent may (but shall not be obligated to) give such notices and take such actions as it deems necessary or advisable in order to abate the discharge of any Hazardous Materials or remove the Hazardous Materials.

64
4929-2661-3627 v.4

Section 12.3 Limitation on Interest.
It is the intention of the parties hereto to conform strictly to applicable usury laws. Accordingly, all agreements between Borrower, Administrative Agent and the Lenders with respect to the Loans are hereby expressly limited so that in no event, whether by reason of acceleration of maturity or otherwise, shall the amount paid or agreed to be paid to Administrative Agent or any Lender or charged by any Lender for the use, forbearance or detention of the money to be lent hereunder or otherwise, exceed the maximum amount allowed by law. If the Loans would be usurious under applicable law (including the laws of the State and the laws of the United States of America), then, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Loan Documents: (1) the aggregate of all consideration which constitutes interest under applicable law that is contracted for, taken, reserved, charged or received under the Loan Documents shall under no circumstances exceed the maximum amount of interest allowed by applicable law, and any excess shall be credited on the Notes by the holders thereof (or, if the Notes have been paid in full, refunded to Borrower); and (2) if maturity is accelerated by reason of an election by Administrative Agent in accordance with the terms hereof, or in the event of any prepayment, then any consideration which constitutes interest may never include more than the maximum amount allowed by applicable law. In such case, excess interest, if any, provided for in the Loan Documents or otherwise, to the extent permitted by applicable law, shall be amortized, prorated, allocated and spread from the date of advance until payment in full so that the actual rate of interest is uniform through the term hereof. If such amortization, proration, allocation and spreading is not permitted under applicable law, then such excess interest shall be cancelled automatically as of the date of such acceleration or prepayment and, if theretofore paid, shall be credited on the Notes (or, if the Notes have been paid in full, refunded to Borrower). The terms and provisions of this Section 12.3 shall control and supersede every other provision of the Loan Documents. The Loan Documents are contracts made under and shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State, except that if at any time the laws of the United States of America permit the Lenders to contract for, take, reserve, charge or receive a higher rate of interest than is allowed by the laws of the State (whether such federal laws directly so provide or refer to the law of any state), then such federal laws shall to such extent govern as to the rate of interest which the Lenders may contract for, take, reserve, charge or receive under the Loan Documents.
Section 12.4 Invalid Provisions.
If any provision of any Loan Document is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be fully severable; the Loan Documents shall be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision had never comprised a part thereof; the remaining provisions thereof shall remain in full effect and shall not be affected by the illegal, invalid, or unenforceable provision or by its severance therefrom; and in lieu of such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision there shall be added automatically as a part of such Loan
65
4929-2661-3627 v.4

Document a provision as similar in terms to such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision as may be possible to be legal, valid and enforceable.

To the extent any amounts due under this Section 12.5 are not paid by Borrower within ten (10) Business Days after demand therefor by Administrative Agent, such amounts shall bear interest at the Default Rate from the date such amounts shall be incurred until paid, and in any event, all of such amounts shall secured by the Loan Documents.

All conditions of the obligations of Administrative Agent and the Lenders hereunder, including the obligation to make advances, are imposed solely and exclusively for the benefit of Administrative Agent and the Lenders, their successors and assigns, and no other Person shall have standing to require satisfaction of such conditions or be entitled to assume that the Lenders will refuse to make advances in the absence of strict compliance with any or all of such conditions, and no other Person shall, under any circumstances, be deemed to be a beneficiary of such conditions, any and all of which may be freely waived in whole or in part by Administrative Agent and the Lenders at any time in their sole and absolute discretion.
Section 12.7 Lenders and Administrative Agent Not in Control; No Partnership.
None of the covenants or other provisions contained in this Agreement shall, or shall be deemed to, give Administrative Agent or any Lender the right or power to exercise control over the affairs or management of Borrower, the power of Administrative Agent and the Lenders being limited to the rights to exercise the remedies referred to in the Loan Documents. The relationship between Borrower and the Lenders is, and at all times shall remain, solely that of debtor and creditor. No covenant or provision of the Loan Documents is intended, nor shall it be deemed or construed, to create a partnership, joint venture, agency or common interest in profits or income between Administrative Agent, the Lenders and Borrower or to create an equity in the Project in Administrative Agent or any Lender. Administrative Agent and the Lenders neither undertake nor assume any responsibility or duty to Borrower or to any other person with respect to the Project or the Loans, except as expressly provided in the Loan Documents; and: (1) neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender is, nor shall be construed as, a partner, joint venturer, alter ego, manager, controlling person or other business associate or participant of any kind of Borrower or its stockholders, members, or partners and neither Administrative Agent nor any Lender intends to ever assume such status; (2) no Lender or Administrative Agent shall in any event be liable for any Debts, expenses or losses incurred or sustained by Borrower; and (3) no Lender or Administrative Agent shall be deemed responsible for or a participant in any acts, omissions or decisions of Borrower or its stockholders, members, or partners. Administrative Agent, the Lenders and Borrower disclaim any intention to create any partnership, joint venture, agency or common interest in profits or income between Administrative Agent, the Lenders and Borrower, or to create an equity in the Project in Administrative Agent or any Lender, or any sharing of liabilities, losses, costs or expenses.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Borrower shall be entitled to rely on consents and approvals executed by Administrative Agent without investigation as to the existence of proper Lender authorization.
Section 14.13 Indemnification by the Lenders.

Section 15.2 Capital Event Transaction Notice.
(i) In the event Borrower intends to enter into a Capital Event Transaction (excluding, however, a foreclosure sale), Borrower shall timely deliver a Capital Event Transaction Notice to Administrative Agent who shall promptly deliver the same to the Junior Lenders. A Capital Event Transaction Notice may be revoked by Borrower at any time following delivery, provided, Borrower shall be responsible for the reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses of Administrative Agent and the Lenders incurred as a result of Administrative Agent and the Lenders having received such Capital Event Transaction Notice (but, for clarity, in no event shall Borrower be liable for any breakage, hedging or other similar costs and expenses that may be incurred by any Lender).
Section 15.3 Capital Event Refinancing Valuation.
(1)If the Capital Event Refinancing Lender in the Capital Event Refinancing has obtained an Appraisal, then the appraised value of the Project set forth therein shall be the Capital Event Refinancing Valuation.
(2)If the Capital Event Refinancing Lender in the Capital Event Refinancing has not obtained an Appraisal, then within ten (10) days after Administrative Agent’s receipt (and delivery to the Junior Lenders) of Borrower’s written notice of the intended Capital Event Refinancing, the Junior Lenders shall appoint a Valuation Expert and Borrower shall appoint a second Valuation Expert. Each party shall notify the other of the identity of the Valuation Expert so engaged within ten (10) days after receipt of the notice regarding the intended Capital Event Refinancing. All requests for information related to the Valuation shall be submitted in writing to Borrower, and Borrower shall use commercially reasonable efforts to respond with the requested information within five (5) days following receipt of such request. Each Valuation Expert shall prepare a broker’s opinion of value (each a “BOV”) in writing within twenty (20) days after its appointment, addressed to the Junior Lenders, Administrative Agent and Borrower. If Borrower does not appoint a Valuation Expert within the required time period, the BOV prepared by Junior Lenders’ Valuation Expert shall be the only BOV used to determine the Capital Event Refinancing Valuation. If the Junior Lenders do not appoint a Valuation Expert within the required time period set forth above and if the correspondence from Borrower notifying the Junior Lenders of such failure contains the following statement at the top of the first page thereof in capitalized, bold faced lettering stating that “IF YOU FAIL TO APPOINT A VALUATION EXPERT WITHIN TEN (10) DAYS AFTER THE EFFECTIVE DATE OF THIS NOTICE,
81
4929-2661-3627 v.4

THE BOV PREPARED BY BORROWER’S VALUATION EXPERT SHALL BE THE ONLY BOV USED TO DETERMINE THE CAPITAL EVENT REFINANCING TRANSACTION VALUATION” and if the Junior Lenders shall fail to appoint a Valuation Expert within ten (10) days after the effective date of Borrower’s notice, then the BOV prepared by Borrower’s Valuation Expert shall be the only BOV used to determine the Capital Event Refinancing Valuation.
(3)If the dollar amount value set forth in the BOV prepared by one Valuation Expert is not greater than or is equal to one hundred ten percent (110%) of the dollar amount value set forth in the BOV prepared by the other Valuation Expert, then the dollar amount used in calculating the Capital Event Refinancing Valuation shall be the average of the two BOVs generated by the Valuation Experts. If the dollar amount value set forth in the BOV prepared by one Valuation Expert is greater than one hundred ten percent (110%) of the dollar amount value set forth in the BOV prepared by the other Valuation Expert, the two Valuation Experts shall have five (5) days to appoint a third Valuation Expert from among those specified in the definition of Valuation Expert which have not been appointed by either Borrower or Junior Lenders (the “Third Valuation Expert”). If the two Valuation Experts first selected fail to appoint a Third Valuation Expert, then the Third Valuation Expert shall be selected from among those specified in the definition of Valuation Expert which have not been appointed by either Borrower or Junior Lenders by the then president of the Real Estate Board of New York or its successor at the request of the Junior Lenders or Borrower (provided that if the Real Estate Board or its successor shall not then exist or shall fail to appoint a Third Valuation Expert within ten (10) days after such request, then the Third Valuation Expert shall be selected from among those specified in the definition of Valuation Expert which have not been appointed by either Borrower or Junior Lenders by JAMS (f/k/a Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services, Inc.) or its successor at the request of the Junior Lenders or Borrower). The Third Valuation Expert shall deliver to the Junior Lenders and Borrower, within twenty (20) days after its appointment, its BOV in writing, which BOV must be addressed to the Junior Lenders, the Administrative Agent and Borrower. The dollar amount value to be used in calculating the Capital Event Refinancing Valuation shall be the average of the two BOVs generated by the three Valuation Experts which are closest in value. In the event that any Capital Event Refinancing is not consummated within six (6) months of the date of any BOV, Borrower and/or the Junior Lenders, as applicable, shall cause the applicable Valuation Expert to update and re-date such BOV.
(4)If the Valuation Experts appointed by Borrower and the Junior Lenders shall have delivered their BOVs in accordance with Section 15.3(2), but the Capital Event Refinancing Valuation shall have not been determined pursuant to Section 15.3(3), then Borrower may nevertheless effect the closing of the Capital Event Refinancing, provided that, pending the determination of the Capital Event Refinancing Valuation, the Capital Event Transaction Proceeds shall be determined by reference to the BOV delivered by the Valuation Expert appointed by Borrower, and at such closing, (i) the Capital Event Transaction Proceeds shall be distributed in accordance with Section 15.1, (ii) the liens and security interests pursuant to the Mortgage and other Security Instruments shall be released or assigned as provided in Section 15.5, and (iii) Borrower shall escrow with a national title company, for the benefit of the Lenders affected thereby, the additional amounts that would have been paid to the Lenders under Section 15.1 if the Capital Event Transaction Proceeds were determined by reference to the BOV delivered by the Valuation Expert appointed by the Junior Lenders, rather than by reference to the BOV delivered by the Valuation Expert appointed by Borrower, with such escrow being disbursed to Borrower or such Lender(s), as applicable, at such time as the Capital Event Refinancing Valuation shall be determined in accordance with Section 15.3(3).

Section 15.4 Affiliated Capital Event Sale
(1) A sale of the Project or a sale of more than 50% of the direct or indirect ownership interest in Borrower (including through the issuance of additional interests), each as described in the definition of Capital Event Sale to Borrower or a BroadAffiliate of Borrower shall qualify as a Capital Event Sale only if (A) the closing of such sale or issuance occurs on or after the third (3 rd) anniversary of the Effective Date and (B) the following procedures are complied with (except that a foreclosure sale to Borrower or a Broad Affiliate of Borrower shall be a Capital Event Sale without regard to compliance with this Section 15.4): (i) Borrower shall have retained as a broker for such sale (the “Sales Broker”) one of Meridian Capital, Newmark, CBRE, Eastdil and JLL (or their respective successors) or such other brokerage firm selected by Borrower and approved by the Junior Lenders, such approval not to be unreasonably withheld, (ii) the Sales Broker shall have conducted a sales process for such sale consistent with then-customary sales processes for comparable properties and (iii) the sales price paid by Borrower’s Broad Affiliate shall be the highest among all sale prices proposed by bidders during the sales process, excluding any bidders that are deemed unlikely to close on the purchase (as determined conclusively by the Sales Broker). Any dispute between Borrower and the Junior Lenders under this Section 15.4 shall be determined by arbitration in New York City before one arbitrator. The arbitration shall be administered by JAMS pursuant to its Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures and in accordance with the Expedited Procedures in those Rules. Judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. The foregoing arbitration provision shall not preclude parties from seeking provisional remedies in aid of arbitration from a court of appropriate jurisdiction.
Section 15.5 Forgiveness and Assignment of Loan Following Waterfall Application.
Upon the closing of a Capital Event Transaction and the application of the proceeds thereof in accordance with Section 15.1, then, notwithstanding anything herein or in any of the other Loan Documents to the contrary, any outstanding Indebtedness that remains unpaid after such application shall be forgiven. At Borrower’s request, Administrative Agent and each Lender shall confirm in writing to Borrower any such Loan forgiveness. In addition, at Borrower’s request, at no cost or expense to Borrower (other than Administrative Agent’s reasonable out-of-pocket attorneys’ fees and disbursements), each Lender shall assign the Notes (and deliver the originals thereof) and Administrative Agent shall assign the lien of the Security Instrument, in each case to such Person(s) as Borrower shall designate, without recourse and without representation or warranty, other than (a) representations by the Administrative Agent that it is the legal holder of the Mortgage and has the authority to effect such assignment and (b) representations by each Lender (i) that is the legal holder of the Notes it is assigning and has the authority to effect such assignment and (ii) as to the outstanding principal balance of the Loans at the time of such assignment. In connection therewith, in the event any of the Lenders is unable to deliver any of its original Notes, such Lender shall deliver a lost note affidavit in respect thereof in a form reasonably acceptable to such Lender and the assignee.
